The PNE Group has successfully sold two wind farm projects to a small group of private investors, marking another milestone in its project disposal strategy. The projects, “Wulfsdorf A” in Schleswig-Holstein and “Kuhstedt III” in Lower Saxony, have a combined nominal capacity of 45 megawatts (MW). Both are repowering projects, replacing older turbines with modern, more efficient technology, thereby significantly increasing renewable electricity generation at existing sites.
The “Wulfsdorf A” wind farm, located in the district of Ostholstein, will feature two Vestas V150 turbines with a capacity of 6.0 MW each and two Vestas V162 turbines with a capacity of 6.2 MW each, totaling 24.4 MW. Construction is already underway, with commissioning scheduled for December 2026. The “Kuhstedt III” wind farm in the district of Rotenburg (Wümme) will have a total capacity of 20.6 MW, comprising two Nordex N175 turbines (6.8 MW each) and one Nordex N163 turbine (7.0 MW). Construction is also in progress, and the project is expected to be commissioned around the turn of 2026/27.
Based on expected electricity generation, the two wind farms will supply the equivalent annual electricity demand of approximately 31,000 three-person households. This transaction underscores the value of repowering: making more efficient use of existing sites, deploying modern turbine technology, and boosting renewable energy output. Roland Stanze, COO of PNE AG, emphasized, “By selling ‘Wulfsdorf A’ and ‘Kuhstedt III’, we continue our successful marketing of high-quality wind farm projects. Both projects demonstrate the value of repowering: we are making more efficient use of existing sites, deploying modern and highly efficient turbine technology, and significantly increasing renewable energy generation. At the same time, the transaction underscores the attractiveness of our projects to investors. Through the operational management services, we will also remain closely connected to the wind farms.”
Operational management of both wind farms will be provided by energy consult GmbH, a subsidiary of the PNE Group, ensuring continued involvement in the projects' lifecycle. This sale follows a series of successful disposals this year, including the “Romescamps” wind farm in France (10.8 MW), the “Bokel” wind farm in Germany (25.2 MW), a wind farm project in Poland (72 MW), and a photovoltaic project in Poland (approximately 40 MW). These transactions highlight PNE's active portfolio management and its position as a leading Clean Energy Solutions Provider.
The PNE Group, listed on the SDAX, has over 30 years of experience in developing onshore wind farms and photovoltaic projects worldwide. Its services cover all project planning phases, from site investigation and permitting to construction, operation, and repowering. The sale of these wind farms not only provides clean electricity for thousands of households but also demonstrates the financial viability of repowering projects, which are crucial for meeting renewable energy targets.
